Hey /sci/ My friend and I have been working out this problem on a practice exam and we cannot for the life of us figure out the correct answer for the Cy and Ey reaction forces. We were able to find Ex, Cx, F(DF), and F(HG). We've been trying different methods but can't come to a consensus on what the right answer is.
Would anyone be willing to take a shot at it?
Update: we got Cy but still are struggling to find Ey

why don't you just ask the prof?

heres a hint
if you push 6.6lbs of force on either size, the total is still 6.6lbs

Well we want to get this done tonight and of course we can't be bothering the prof at this time of the night. It would be too spooky

Correct, that's how we determined Cy. However, Ey is throwing us for a loop right about now.
OP here, I'm a fucking retard
I was overthinking it hard
